Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race 2020

The Yachts

Ffreefire 52

FfreeFire 52 is the first TP52 ever built and she has been based in Hong Kong since 2006, winning both the Hong Kong to San Fernando race and the Hong Kong to Hainan race in 2007. All the crew live, or have lived, in Hong Kong or Singapore and have been sailing offshore together for many years on this boat and the previous FfreeFire 70, competing in such classics as the Rolex China Sea Race (first in 2004), and the RHKYC’s Hong Kong to Vietnam race. Skippered this time by Anthony Day and with regular yacht manager Russ Parker, Rear Commodore of the RHKYC, the team relishes the challenge of the race and are hoping for a convincing performance from both boat and crew.
